RALLY & EATS 2018 – FREE WORKOUT FOR ALL AGES!

RALLY & EATS 2018 – FREE WORKOUT FOR ALL AGES!

“I work out so that I can eat.” – Some wise person, someplace, at some point in time.

Ah, the eternal struggle between eating and exercise. I don’t know if ya’ll feel this way, but sometimes food fuels the soul in a way that exercise just can’t. But alas, it’s important to keep our bodies movin’ and groovin’ so that we can continue to enjoy the finer things in life (I’m talking about you, ice cream.) Today’s post is one that I’m particularly excited about because it helps solve the never-ending exercise struggle by making sweating fun. Yes, I’m serious.

Last week, the SpokaneEats team participated in a HIIT Tennis class by RecTennis at Manito Park. Powered by USTA PNW, RecTennis was created in 2013 to bring fun, accessible, and affordable tennis lessons to anyone interested in playing the game through schools and community outlets.

These HIIT programs are an hour long high intensity, interval workout geared toward teens and adults who want to get some good exercise and learn or reconnect with the game of tennis. Although none of us have any formal tennis background, the coaches at RecTennis made us feel comfortable and quickly taught us the basics – by the end of the lesson, we were running through drills like seasoned pros (well, for the most part).

Upon arrival, we all filled out name tags and found a racket that fit us well. Don’t worry if you don’t have your own gear, RecTennis brings enough for everyone. We started with a few group warmups and then quickly went into drills to practice specific tennis skills but mainly to get moving. It wasn’t long before we started to work up a sweat and the hour flew by so quickly! Time flies when you’re having fun, even better when that time is workout time.

Even though our skills are on the beginner level, we left the class feeling great and accomplished! I know that sports lessons and trying new exercises can be a bit intimidating, but truly, RecTennis is for everyone!
